Chapter 184
Jack agreed to Olivia’s request without any hesitation.
Tom and Jerry spent a long time catching up with Olivia.
“Ms. Olivia, Jack left the island shortly after you did. He should have come to Aldenvine.
“If you need his help, you can contact him in private.”
“Do you guys know his background?” Olivia felt that Jack was very mysterious.
He was a man who owned a lot of firearms. And she still doesn’t know what he looked like.
The information that Calvin dug up was definitely going to be limited.
Jack was different. He might have special channels to gather more information.
In addition, Jack was a mysterious entity. The mastermind would not know about his existence.
“Jack washed up on our shores a few years ago. He was on the brink of death when he arrived. Mom
saved his life. “He didn’t seem to have any family, so he stayed on our island. But I think he might be
an incredible person. His marksmanship is excellent.”
Tom scratched his head in embarrassment at the mention of marksmanship. “Ms. Olivia, I was too
nervous that day. “I almost hit you accidentally. But your ex–husband was good to you. He protected

Tom was honest with his emotions. It was true that he hated Ethan. But he was also able to
acknowledge his good qualities. Olivia didn’t want to talk about Ethan. She patted him on the head and
said, “You have been given a unique chance.
“So, you have to study hard to make a name for yourself and make Martha proud.”
“Understood, Ms. Olivia.”
Since she hadn’t started work yet, Olivia brought them to visit a famous local art exhibit.
It was the first time Jerry was in such a close encounter with these art pieces. He was immensely
moved. He did not know where to look.
Tom did not understand him. He shrugged and said, “I know there are book nerds. I think he’s an art
nerd.
“What’s so interesting about these paintings? His reaction is too over the top.”
Olivia laughed softly and said, “It’s only natural you can’t feel what he feels. It’s because you don’t
share his passion for art.”
She was able to put down her hatred temporarily when she was with them. It was as if she was back on
the island, living a carefree life.
She saw that Jerry was standing in front of a painting for a long time. She approached him and asked,
“What are you looking at? You look like you’re in a trance.”
Jerry snapped back into reality. His eyes were filled with joy, shining like stars in the night.
“Ms. Olivia, look at this painting. It is so exquisite.”
Olivia looked at the painting and was taken aback. “This painting …”
The painting depicted a sunrise in the mountains. The sunlight burst forth from beyond the hills and
showered its light on everything, giving them a golden glow.
The mountains were lush with greenery. Birds were soaring in the air, and squirrels were carrying pine
cones on trees.
In the distance, there was a cottage with smoke rising from its chimney. A stream of water flowed down
the edge of the
mountains.
It felt like the painting encompassed all of creation.
It depicted an image full of life and gave off a feeling of being immersed in the beauty of life.

Olivia pursed her lips and muttered slowly, “I … painted this.”
“What? You painted this, Ms. Olivia?” Jerry had seen Olivia’s current style before. It was completely
different from the painting in front of them.
Olivia almost forgot that she used to study under the master painter Constantine Harrington.
The heirs of wealthy families were provided with quality education from a young age. Olivia happened
to have a talent for many things and was the final student of Constantine.
She painted this at the age of 13. But she didn’t expect it to be displayed in an art exhibit.
She recalled her brilliant achievements in the past and compared them to her misfortune.
Everything changed because of one man. It was too pitiful.
Olivia suddenly heard a commotion coming from the side. It would seem like someone important had
arrived.
Tom was sucking on a lollipop. He pointed not far away and said, “Ms. Olivia, isn’t that Connor?”
Olivia looked toward where he was pointing and saw the familiar faces.
It was Ethan and his family. Marina was carrying Connor in her arms and holding Ethan’s arm with a
smile.
